Few objects made by Native Americans have received as much attention as the pottery of Southwestern Pueblo Indians. With a background of skills developed over many hundreds of years, Pueblo potters have succeeded in producing an enviable record of artistic achievement. We have many more pieces than what is shown here. If you are looking for a particular artist or style, please email us.

It's only open a few days a week but we were very lucky and they were open on a Saturday. We walked around 2 floors admiring jewelry, textiles, carvings, and other treasures. Everyone there was kind and helpful which is great because we had a tough time making a decision on which piece we wanted to bring home. We were also lucky that there was a 20% off sale going on. We were visiting from out of state, but they were able to securely pack our purchase so that we could carry it home. Worth a visit if you are in the area.
